Hopefully somebody can help me here... (I'm running 64bit Vista Ultimate, with a ASUS M3N-HT Mobo, 2x9800GT GPUs, with 4GB of RAM..)
I returned home after two days off over the weekend, only to find I had no internet.
After further investiagation, I found that my OS wasn't even recognising my network. In the Network and Sharing centre where my network should be, it states that the dependancies or group have failed to start. When I open the diagnose centre it advises me that I will have to start the diagnostic service poilcy manually in the services.. Problem is, when I try to start it, It states that Access is Denied!!!!!

I've tried to re-install the chipset drivers, and also the drivers specifically for the nVidia nForce ethernet... but to no avail..

PLS Help Me... I've much porn to download :( hahaha

touche..

Can anyone else grasp the idea that I might have sent this post from a work computer?

Let me re-phrase...

Can anyone with constructive help (and a sense of humour) give me some advice...?

THis is intersting.. maybe an update has happend perhaps a sys restore would fix the issue. ? You could spend $15 get a nic card and see if that works?

I appreciate you have re-installed the drivers but you could try a driver roll back.
Or backup up your data and re-install vista

The issue here is trying to find out if it is a software or HW issue. If you had a bootable lan cd / usb / floppy you could tell if the hw was ok.

If you run CMD windows as administrator, and ping your loop back ip 127.0.0.1?

I would as someone else said if we you can do a driver roll back, or uninstall the device in dev manager and see if you scan for hardware changes maybe it will work.

If you select start and select run type services.msc any services that are stopped that could be started? Check Network Connections services and its depend NSIS and RPC services.

Also check the windows event viewer for warnings and errors

Hello I have had a similar issue with nvidia networking on a gigabyte mobo with 32bit Vista.
Windows told me that the device was working correctly but I couldn`t get onto net, tried to unistall drivers, but the system would just hang for hours.
I think it had to do with a new update as it is a relatively new system.
So what I did was try to unistall, system hung up as usuall, manually reboot and then load the drivers that came with the mobo, so far so good.
Best of Luck, hope this makes sense to you.
